About Tigran N.

*** Lesson Details ***I strongly believe that, if every child would be provided with an ideal environment, would gain extraordinary ability. There are no exceptions. No one can tell how able man is by the nature. What is known is the ability that is spoiled or developed. It cannot be denied that most children speak their native languages beautifully by learning about 3000-4000 words by age 5 or 6. Nothing can clearer demonstrate of the original power of the human mind. Through the years of studying and teaching music I realized that this is the most important concept for developing each kid's talent, to increase his or her ability to the maximum. Therefore I am combining the great methods of teaching violin. The Suzuki method and the Russian school method. Suzuki method helps at the earliest stage of playing an instrument and I am using later Russian school method for more advanced period of studying.

Great teacher! I am just beginning and Tigran is being so patient and he makes the lesson fun.

Katya August 4, 2017·Violin·Online

I have a music background, but quit playing violin at some point.
Tigran has helped me to pick up violin after a long hiatus.
He assisted me with establishing my daily practice routine, gave a lot of valuable advice on how to redevelop my technique within the short period of time.
Definitely Tigran is an experienced, supportive and encouraging teacher.

About Stephanie Q.

Being a violin and viola teacher for the past 25 years, I love imparting to my students the how-to of tone production, and can teach from beginner all the way to conservatory auditions!

About Stephanie

I am a career musician, and conservatory trained violin, piano and vocal instructor with over 40 years teaching experience, and a resume spanning many pages. I also am a well endorsed composer and public speaker. Furthermore, I LOVE teaching! I am a competition judge, member of National Music Teachers Association, and Suzuki Association of the Americas. I have proven results, as documented on my students YouTube channel. With my instruction, you will learn quickly and most importantly, correctly, saving you time and resources as you reach your musical goals. Fact: One of the only activities that activates, stimulates, and uses the entire brain is music, so let's get started!

Some people have difficulty reaching a teachers' studio. For this reason, I have perfected my ability to teach via Skype or FaceTime. It is an advantage f

or my students to be instructed by a quality teacher. It's worth a try, isn't it?

Please note: I only accept weekly lesson students. Also, due to my performances, I'm not always able to this calendar up to date....so when you request a lesson time, allow me to communicate with you, if we need to adjust it a bit. It almost always works out if you don't mind doing that.

*** Lesson Details ***All the students on my Student YouTube channel who have studied under three years, are practicing 2 hours a week, and you will have a similar result. That's 20 minutes a day, 6 days a week. Students under 5 practice about 5-10 minutes a day.

Please have an assignment book that lies flat, and keep it next to your music books as you practice between lessons. My instructions are very detailed to insure your best progress.

Studio EquipmentFor on-line lessons, you will need a quiet place, and please test your sound and video prior to beginning of lesson. For students under 13 or so, do have a parent or caregiver taking notes while we work together.

SpecialtiesI have much experience with various learning styles, and in fact, am featured in a documentary made of one of my autistic students.

Very pleased with my first lesson! I'm an adult beginner and I appreciated her frankness and encouragement!

Jennifer B. February 13, 2017·Fiddle·Online

Excellent teacher..Stephanie is so patience. .looking forward to more lessons with her.

Nancy Lease January 4, 2017·Organ·Online

I began taking on line Organ lessons with Stephanie in July of 2016. She is an excellent instructor. She makes you want to learn and do your best. She is very patient and explains things very well. She asks that you practice 20 minutes a day. Since she inspires you to improve and do your best, it is easy to practice longer than requested. She has brought joy back into my life through music. I am very grateful.

About Kendra R.

I began privately instructing students while I was still in high school. Thirty years later, my studio teaching experience continues to instill a passion for music and students that are performing in their own venues in school and the community. Knowing that the time I have with each person is leading them to grow and share their own abilities with others is truly the heart of where I think musical instruction should lead.

About Kendra

Hello. My name is Kendra and I have been performing and teaching professionally for over 25 years. Utilizing the Suzuki curriculum and supplemental methods, I like to provide a solid technical foundation as well as tailor each lesson to my students' personal musical interests and goals including classical, Irish and Bluegrass fiddle styles, jazz, blues, and popular music.

Kendra is amazing!!!! So happy & encouraging!!! Has patience for questions and if you don't understand something right away!!!! I'm loving my violin lessons!!!!

John January 12, 2018·Violin·Online

I'm an older, experienced player that has had some specific problems after returning to violin after a long hiatus. I was concerned most with my vibrato and a bouncing bow. Kendra zeroed right in on those problems and they were resolved in just three lessons. Kendra is patient, knowledgeable and perfect for an adult player at any level. I imagine she is fantastic with younger players, as well.

Kyle is a great piano teacher! He is very patient with my 12-year old son. Just yesterday he referred to him as “fun Kyle” because he teaches him small songs on the side that he can show friends and family or are for upcoming holidays. He’s always punctual and respectful of our family and home. I’m grateful to have found him!

Thalia J. June 4, 2016·Piano·In home

Kyle is patient and a great instructor.

Laura May 31, 2016·Upright Bass·In studio

Kyle has given me contra bass, aka upright bass,weekly lessons from August 2015 through May 2016. I have never played a string instrument prior to this, although I do play piano and have played the flute, bagpipes, and piccolo over the years. I did not need education in reading music.

Kyle was able to take me from sounding like a lower octave version of Jack Benny (a mid-20th century comedian famous for his howlingly horrid violin playing) to a level where I know how to hold the instrument and the bow, the fingerings, bowing technique, and how to get a very respectable sound from the instrument.

He also installed the strings when I received the new instrument, found a manufacturing flaw in the bridge height that the manufacturer subsequently paid to repair, and diagnosed a resonance issue with the instrument that was corrected with a balance weight on the string below the bridge.

About Michelle H.

Viola teacher as of 9 years, I teach beginning through advanced lessons. Suzuki Viola school, Essential Elements 2000, shifting skills, theory, and standard concerto literature. I focus on training students with proper technique and how they want to be trained: classical, orchestral, pop, and fiddle. Students will need: an instrument, metronome, shoulder rest, and specified books (discussed at the first lesson).

My goal is to teach you to play what you love and love what you play.

About Michelle

Michelle picked up the violin at the unusual age of 12 years old. Despite the challenges of learning such a difficult instrument at an “older” age, she excelled, leading her to believe in students of all ages. Just a few years into learning the violin, she was approached to teach private lessons by several families. Knowing where her love was planted, she pursued and earned her Bachelor’s of Music in String Pedagogy in 2014, graduating with honors and multitudes of experience: orchestra, score reading, and assistant directing youth orchestras, etc….Since her studies, she has continued in professional teaching. Her accomplishments include private instruction in violin, viola, and cello. In addition, she developed group ensembles as well as a youth orchestra. Michelle loves bringing the joy of music into peoples lives and encourages excelle

nce in all areas of musical understanding.

Michelle is a kind and patient teacher and great musician. I have not taken lessons, but as her colleague I have worked with her on occasion. I was impressed by how much she cares about her students, how prepared she is for each lesson and her creativity in keeping students engaged and learning throughout the lesson. I cannot recommend her enough!

About Christina H.

I Love to teach viola, because I love the way this instrument sounds. Everyone thinks it is just like violin but actually there is so many different way to bowing and tech from violin. My goal is make hear how viola sounds, it can actually even touching then cello and violin in some melo piece .

About Christina

I started my music education as pianist when i was 5 in Taiwan , I was be training solid on theory and ear listening as well when i play piano ,then i start to learn violin and viola when I was selected to Music academic specialize school .I keep practicing both instrument intensively till college and decide i wanna do Viola as my major music career .I discover i love and enjoy the warm sound like mezzo or alto ,then i got steindhardt music talent scholarship to get master in NYU .

I like to share my experience with my students, in our lesson for beginner , we will learn to read music applying to your favorite pieces, we will learn to do warm up and basic skills. I will give you assignment for reading and writing the notes which can improve simple theory in the same time. .As long as you have theory base foundation, you will disc

over how fast to learn other instrument later on. For medium level friends, i will love to focus on basic skill , technique ,music ideas , ear training ,and dynamics on the sheet music , maybe some history story i will love to share with you. Meanwhile, performance skills are part of music as well , I will tell you hints and way to practice focus on every time we meet, but i will also left some space for you to develop your own music idea , because i think that help students confident to play and creativity .I will emphasize and being help on technique ,solve problem together. I hope my students will enjoy practicing and feel proud and fun of them selves.
